Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of environmental monitoring and relates to a method and device for assessing the equivalent PM2.5 exposure concentration of urban residents. Background Technology
[0002] Air pollution is one of the most serious environmental problems faced by humankind since the industrial age, imposing a heavy burden on human health and social development. Current research primarily focuses on assessing the impact of the implementation of relevant policies and standards, such as clean fuel substitution programs, integrated clean air programs, and expected air quality standards, on the harmful effects of air pollution; and the impact of individual-level air pollution exposure levels at different times and spaces on health. The former mainly focuses on the macro-level impact of air pollution on health, often neglecting differences in air pollution exposure at different times and spaces for individual activities, or the interactions between different environmental air pollution sources. The latter focuses on micro-level individual pollution exposure. A common characteristic of these studies is that they treat humans as passive subjects, meaning that the level of air pollution experienced by individuals depends solely on the level of ambient air pollution.
[0003] However, in reality, people don't passively endure the harm caused by air pollution. According to risk perception theory, when people realize that air pollution poses a threat to their health, they will take action to mitigate or eliminate this risk. This self-protective behavior alters people's activity patterns, thereby directly or indirectly reducing their exposure to polluted air. Therefore, ignoring proactive protective measures will inevitably affect the accurate assessment of the harm caused by air pollution. The government has implemented a series of related measures to improve the situation. One important change is the revision of air quality standards, which for the first time included highly harmful pollutants such as PM2.5 in the air quality assessment system. The number of pollutants monitored has increased from three to six, and local government departments are required to publish real-time air quality information to the public through various channels. As a result, air quality monitoring and early warning information is as readily available in daily life as weather information, allowing people to decide whether to take protective measures based on the published data.
[0004] Based on the aforementioned research, any research should be grounded in more accurate and comprehensive environmental pollution data. However, the PM2.5 exposure concentration information used in the current research does not incorporate the interaction between air pollution risk information and protective behaviors. Consequently, the PM2.5 exposure concentration information used in the models of these studies does not accurately reflect actual pollution information, and the research results obtained based on this data may deviate from reality.

[0079] The embodiments of this application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, examples of which are shown in the drawings. This application provides a method and apparatus to solve the problem of improving the accuracy of obtaining PM2.5 exposure concentrations of urban residents, so as to provide accurate data support for research on the relationship between air pollution and health levels. The method and apparatus, electronic devices, and computer storage media are based on the same technical concept.

[0080] Definition: Fine particulate matter, also known as fine particles, PM2.5, refers to particulate matter in ambient air with an aerodynamic equivalent diameter of 2.5 micrometers or less. It can remain suspended in the air for a relatively long time, and a higher concentration indicates more severe air pollution. Although PM2.5 is only a small component of the Earth's atmosphere, it has a significant impact on air quality and visibility. Compared to coarser atmospheric particles, PM2.5 particles are smaller, have a larger surface area, are more reactive, and easily carry toxic and harmful substances (e.g., heavy metals, microorganisms). Furthermore, they remain in the atmosphere for a longer time and travel greater distances, thus having a greater impact on human health and atmospheric environmental quality. In February 2013, the National Committee for Terminology in Science and Technology officially named PM2.5 "fine particulate matter" in Chinese. The chemical composition of fine particulate matter mainly includes organic carbon (OC), elemental carbon (EC), nitrates, sulfates, ammonium salts, and sodium salts (Na). + )wait.
[0081] According to risk perception theory, people's risk protection behavior is a dynamic process. An individual's level of awareness of air pollution risks is mainly influenced by family, socio-cultural factors, and prior experience. When a relevant risk event is experienced again, hypotheses about that event are activated, further generating the intention and behavior to protect oneself. When individuals or groups take protective measures against air pollution, it is equivalent to reducing their exposure to PM2.5 and other particulate matter in polluted environments. Factors affecting PM2.5 exposure mainly include the temporal / spatial (indoor / outdoor) distribution and concentration of ambient PM2.5, an individual's awareness of air pollution risk information, and their willingness to take protective measures. This invention quantifies these factors using air quality data and over 1000 questionnaires, indicating that the public's awareness of air pollution is relatively comprehensive. Figure 1 The study found a significant positive correlation between people's awareness, perception, and concern about air pollution and their protective behaviors.
[0082] according to Figure 1This chart shows the relationship between public awareness, perception, and concern about air pollution and their protective behaviors. Data points can be aggregated by region (e.g., province). Awareness and perception are represented by values from 0 to 10, while concern represents the proportion of people in the survey who frequently or almost daily pay attention to air pollution. Among protective behaviors, canceling outdoor activities, wearing masks, and using air purifiers (at home / workplace) are the percentages of people who would take these actions during polluted weather.
[0083] Based on the above results and analysis, this invention establishes a comprehensive equivalent PM2.5 exposure model (IEPEM) to demonstrate the differences in PM2.5 exposure concentrations among different population groups during polluted weather. The survey questionnaire of this invention shows that approximately 82.6% of respondents obtain current air pollution levels through air quality forecasts from media such as the internet and television. Based on their sensitivity to air pollution issues such as smog, they can be divided into highly sensitive and low-sensitive groups. The highly sensitive group pays close attention to air pollution weather information and takes corresponding protective measures, such as canceling or reducing outdoor time, wearing masks, and purchasing and using air purifiers. The low-sensitive group is almost unaffected by air pollution information. For the highly sensitive group, the exposure concentration is equivalent to the ambient PM2.5 concentration attenuated by protective factors (POH, POM, POAC), while the low-sensitive group is directly exposed to ambient PM2.5 when outdoors, and is only protected by buildings indoors.
[0084] To systematically study the changes in PM2.5 exposure concentrations and their gains and losses caused by differences in the behaviors of different groups under the influence of daily air pollution risk information, this invention proposes the following five IEPEM scenarios:
[0085] Table 1 IEPEM Scenarios and Settings
[0086]
[0087] Comprehensive Equivalent PM2.5 Exposure Concentration: This invention extrapolates indicators such as residents' concern about air pollution and protective behaviors in 294 Chinese cities using questionnaire data and city / provincial statistical data, employing machine learning and other technologies. Using these indicators, the equivalent PM2.5 concentration under scenarios S0-S4 is simulated. The spatial distribution of the baseline scenario S0 indicates that air pollution mainly occurs in concentrated areas. Under scenarios S1-S4, the equivalent PM2.5 concentration decreases to varying degrees compared to scenario S0, and the degree of change in PM2.5 concentration compared to S0 varies across different regions under different scenarios. This indicates that differences in population activity patterns and protective behaviors in different regions directly impact PM2.5 exposure concentrations.
[0088] from Figure 3It can be seen that the average PM2.5 concentration in the environment under scenario S0 is 34.1 μg / m3, and the comprehensive equivalent PM2.5 exposure concentrations under scenarios S1-S4 are 23.3 μg / m3, respectively. 3 20.3 μg / m 3 21.8 μg / m 3 19.8 μg / m 3 Compared to scenario S0, the levels decreased by 10.8 μg / m³. 3 13.8 μg / m 3 12.3 μg / m 3 14.3 μg / m 3 Among them, S4 showed the largest decrease, indicating that when the public pays attention to air pollution information and takes protective measures, changing air pollution risk information can significantly affect their overall PM2.5 exposure concentration. At the same time, it can be seen that among all protective factors, building protection plays the most important role in the reduction of environmental PM2.5 exposure concentration. This is because people spend about 80% of their time indoors, and buildings have a more significant effect on blocking external PM2.5. Compared with the settings of scenarios S0-S2, S3 is closer to the real-world scenario. Under the assumption that protective measures are only taken when people pay attention to air pollution, the overall PM2.5 exposure concentration increased by 1.5 μg / m3 compared to the ideal scenario (S2).
[0089] Differences in people's activity patterns across different regions significantly affect the per capita PM2.5 exposure concentration in those regions. People's awareness and behavior regarding protection are higher in areas with more severe air pollution than in areas with less pollution. Public awareness and behavior are not only influenced by the actual level of risk, but also highly correlated with differences in risk information perception and understanding caused by uneven economic and cultural development across different regions.
[0090] This invention conducted a detailed survey of the Chinese public's perception, awareness, and concern about air pollution, as well as their protective behaviors during polluted weather, using questionnaires. By employing machine learning and transfer learning methods, this "small data" survey was extrapolated to prefecture-level cities across the country, revealing a comprehensive picture of how public behavior patterns change under air pollution and uncovering the benefits of protective behaviors influenced by environmental pollution information. The study shows that ignoring people's activity patterns significantly overestimates the harmfulness of PM2.5, and that proactive protective behaviors bring significant health benefits. Incorporating indoor and outdoor activity patterns into the estimation model makes it more realistic when considering protective behaviors. Furthermore, differences in protective awareness and behaviors among different genders, ages, and urban / rural areas create gaps in benefits and losses. Further research indicates that information inequality is a significant reason for regional differences in PM2.5-related benefits and losses.
[0091] In one embodiment, the present invention designed a questionnaire to obtain data on awareness and protection against air pollution from different regions and groups. The questionnaire underwent rigorous quality control, eliminating questionnaires with obvious logical errors, missing data, and inconsistent addresses. Ultimately, 1072 valid questionnaires were obtained from 1209 responses. Initial statistical information for some important indicators in the questionnaire is as follows: Figure 4 As shown. Perceptions and understanding of air pollution were primarily assessed by asking respondents about their perceived severity of air pollution in their area and its impact on health, expressed as a numerical value from 1 to 10, with higher numbers indicating greater severity. Values greater than 5 were considered relatively high. Attention to air pollution was categorized as: almost never - occasionally - moderately - frequently - almost daily. This invention uses the aggregated results of this index, assigning a value of 1 to "frequent" or higher attention levels, and 0 to others. The average of these values was used to obtain the attention ratio (ATTRi) for group i (e.g., region, gender, age, etc.). Air pollution weather conditions are... Indicators such as whether or not to wear masks or cancel going out, and whether or not air purification equipment is available in workplaces and residences are used. A value of 1 is assigned to the answer "yes", and 0 is assigned to the answer "no". In this invention, this indicator is also used as a ratio indicator after the aggregation of groups, namely, the mask wearing rate (MRi), the cancellation rate of going out (CODRi), and the indoor air purification equipment ownership rate (ACRi, the average of the air purification equipment ownership rates in workplaces and residences) of group i. The outdoor activity time ratio mainly investigates the average number of hours of outdoor activity per day for individuals, and then calculates the daily outdoor activity ratio (ODRi) of individuals or group i.

[0093] As is well known, data obtained from questionnaires is generally limited. Previous studies on air pollution-related protective behaviors have typically focused on a single city or used a small, statistically significant sample to represent the entire population of each province. While this approach has some merit, it is clearly crude and cannot accurately reflect the high heterogeneity among different cities and regions. Since weather and air quality forecasts are generally aggregated at the city level, and residents' perceptions and awareness of air pollution vary across cities, protective behaviors in this invention should also be city-level. However, questionnaire data clearly cannot cover all cities, or its sample size is not statistically significant. When more than 20 samples are considered statistically significant, over 20 provinces and regions in the questionnaires used in this invention meet this standard, but fewer than 10 cities meet or exceed it. A feasible solution is to use provincial-level questionnaire results as the predictable items, use other provincial statistical data as auxiliary features to build a machine learning prediction model, and then use city-level statistical data of similar significance as model input to predict city-level attention and protective behaviors. However, this method still has potential drawbacks: the joint probability distributions of city-level data and provincial-level data may differ, which does not conform to the principle of identically and independently distributed (iiD) training and prediction data in machine learning models.
[0094] To address the above issues, this invention introduces transfer learning into the inference of city-level protective behaviors and attention levels. The idea behind transfer learning is to leverage the similarity of data, tasks, or models to apply models and knowledge learned in an old domain to a new domain. This can be uniformly represented in the following form:
[0095]
[0096] N in formula 1 s v is the number of samples in the source domain. i Let D be the source domain sample weights, l(·,·) be the empirical loss function, R(·,·) be the transfer regularization term, and T(·,·) be the expression applied to the source domain D. s and target domain D tThe feature transformation function of the sample. Transfer learning can be divided into sample weight transfer method, feature transformation transfer method, and pre-trained model transfer method according to different parts of the optimization formula (1). The transfer learning method used in this invention is the subspace feature transformation method. This method usually assumes that the source domain and target domain data will have similar distributions in the transformed subspace. By aligning the statistical features of the data, the data distribution is aligned. It is suitable for unsupervised transfer without labeling in the target domain and is more in line with the extrapolation task of this invention. The CORAL (Correlation Alignment) algorithm is a relatively mature method in the subspace transformation transfer method and is also the specific method applied in this invention. The CORAL algorithm mainly aligns the second-order features of the two domains to achieve the alignment of feature data distribution. It assumes that C s C t Let A be the covariance matrices of the source and target domains, respectively. Transforming A into the objective function, the optimization objective is:
[0097]
[0098] Based on the problem and data of this invention, the calculation process for the final required prediction result is as follows:
[0099] Step 1: Align the provincial statistical data (Source domain) with the city statistical data (Target domain).
[0100]
[0101]
[0102] C s =∑ s +eye(m) (5)
[0103] C t =∑ t +eye(m) (6)
[0104]
[0105] Equations (3)-(4) represent the feature datasets of the source and target domains, respectively. Let m be the m-th feature of a single sample in the dataset. The source domain feature data consists of provincial-level statistical data from the China Statistical Yearbook 202048, and the target domain feature data consists of urban statistical data from the China Urban Statistical Yearbook 202049. Both the source and target domain features are statistical indicators of the same type, encompassing 18 indicators across areas such as economy, environment, education, and population structure. It is noted that these indicators have significantly different data scales at the city and provincial levels. Therefore, this invention divides all indicators by the current total population of the region to obtain the per capita value of each indicator, thus mitigating prediction errors caused by this scale difference.
[0106] Step 2: Build and train a supervised machine learning model using the transformed source domain data, and finally use the trained model to predict city-level data.
[0107] Model architecture such as Figure 5 As shown in the figure. The dataset, consisting of five indicators, forms the training datasets for the five tasks. Due to the relatively small amount of data in this invention, overfitting is prone to occur, making it unsuitable to use highly complex models. Therefore, this invention selects four models as candidate models: Random Forest (RF), Lasso Regression, Ridge Regression, and Support Vector Machine (SVM / R). These models are simple in structure and efficient, and overfitting can be easily limited using regularization techniques. During training, a hyperparameter grid search method is used to automatically optimize the training for each task. Five-fold cross-validation is used to verify the accuracy of each training result, selecting the best-performing model for each task. Finally, city-level sample data is used to predict the corresponding indicators for each city.
[0108] Figure 5 The model training and prediction process is shown in Table 2. The training and testing results are also shown in Table 2. Column 1 lists the various metrics, column 2 lists the corresponding best model, and columns 3 and 4 show the mean squared error (MSE) and goodness of fit (R²) of the 5-fold cross-validation under the optimal parameters of the corresponding model, respectively. 2 The values, as can be seen from the corresponding measurement data, show that the model maintained a good fit. Column 5 shows the test results in cities with a sample size greater than 20, with the mean absolute error (MAE) as the metric. It can be seen that the predicted results for most indicators deviate from the actual data by about 0.1, which is within an acceptable range.
[0109] Figure 6 The distribution chart shows the prediction results for the five indicators. Some indicators have very few outliers. To make the final results more stable and reliable, this invention trims all values that exceed the mean μ of each indicator by ±2 standard deviations δ to μ±2δ.

[0112] Figure 6 The table shows the density distribution of predicted index values. When categorizing by age, gender, and urban / rural groups, the sample size for each group decreases further within each city group due to indicators such as awareness and protective behavior, making effective inferences impossible. Therefore, the index values for each group are calculated using the total original questionnaire data, as shown in Table 3. Since air purification equipment can be shared by all groups in the same space, the ACR indexes for gender, age, and other groups are still calculated based on the overall predicted values for each city, while the urban / rural group data is based on the original questionnaire statistics.

[0115] Equivalent PM2.5 Calculation: The equivalent PM2.5 exposure concentration calculation model of this invention references and improves upon the Integrated Population Weighted Exposure (IPWE) model developed by Shen et al. The IPWE model divides air pollution into indoor air pollution (HAP) and outdoor ambient air pollution (AAP), with HAP mainly originating from household solid fuel use. The model also uses the proportion of time people spend in different spaces as the weight for summing the PM2.5 concentration in each space, as shown in Formula 8.
[0116]
[0117] Where C0 represents the outdoor PM2.5 concentration, t m Let C be the time C spends in space m. m Let m be the PM2.5 concentration in space. Compared to many earlier studies that directly used the ambient PM2.5 concentration as the PM2.5 exposure concentration for residents, the IPWE model is more reasonable and accurate, and therefore widely used. However, this model still has the following shortcomings: the model equates indoor PM2.5 concentration to the sum of outdoor ambient PM2.5 concentration and PM2.5 concentration generated by indoor pollution sources, but many studies have shown that outdoor PM2.5 cannot enter indoors without obstruction and will have a significant attenuation effect. Therefore, this invention incorporates the PM2.5 penetration coefficient of various regions into the improved model; more generally, no studies have been found to include human protective behaviors, such as wearing masks in smoggy weather, canceling outdoor activities, purchasing and using air purification equipment, etc., which all have a direct impact on human PM2.5 exposure concentration. Based on the above, this invention establishes the Integrated Equivalent PM2.5 Exposure Model (IEPEM) to more accurately measure people's actual PM2.5 exposure concentration. To construct this model, this invention first makes the following assumptions:
[0118] Hypothesis 1: The activity patterns, protective behaviors, and attention behaviors of each city and group all conform to a normal distribution and are independent of each other.
[0119] Hypothesis 2: People will only decide whether to take protective measures after receiving information about air pollution.
[0120] Assumption 3: People will only take protective measures when air pollution reaches a certain level. This invention selects "light pollution" as the air pollution level, meaning the Air Quality Index (AQI) is greater than the minimum AQI value corresponding to this level.
[0121] Based on the above assumptions, the IEPEM model can be expressed by Equation 9. The proportion of urban attention and the ratio of protective behaviors in the equation are derived from urban protection data and the prediction results of the inferred portion, and both follow N(μ) i θ 2 ) distribution, μ i Here is the predicted data for this indicator in city i, and θ is the standard deviation of this indicator. i,t The average PM2.5 concentration in city i on day t is represented by the Air Quality Index (AQI), which is derived from data from over 2000 ground-based air quality monitoring stations under the Ministry of Ecology and Environment of China. i,t IEPE represents the air quality index of city i on day t. i DH represents the annual comprehensive equivalent PM2.5 exposure value for city i. Threshold is the AQI value at which the air quality level of "light pollution" is reached. DM represents the protective effect of the mask, i.e., the attenuation rate of PM2.5 after filtration by the mask; the protective effect follows the Chinese government's group standard F9054 for "PM2.5 Protective Masks". i The attenuation rate represents the protective effect of buildings in different regions, i.e., the rate attenuation of outdoor PM2.5 when it penetrates into the indoor environment. DAC represents the purification efficiency of air purifiers, i.e., the rate attenuation of PM2.5 concentration in indoor air after purification by air purifiers, using the mean of these studies as the attenuation rate value. To account for uncertainty, it is assumed that all types of attenuation rate data follow a normal distribution with a standard deviation of 0.1.

[0124] Based on the proportion of daily average outdoor time spent by residents of city i, the proportion of residents of city i who cancel their outdoor activities during periods of air pollution, and the proportion of residents of city i who pay attention to air pollution forecasts, the equivalent outdoor time ratio (ODR) for city i, considering those who pay attention to air pollution forecasts, is obtained. i It is expressed by the following formula:
